Cadw has highlighted changing arrangements on Historic Parks and Gardens and its Statutory Register.
…Once the register becomes statutory, all of the registered sites will appear on Cof Cymru…
Cadw writes:
The commencement order made by the Deputy Minister for Arts and Sport on 16 September will… bring the statutory register of historic parks and gardens in Wales into force on 1 February 2022. Provision for the statutory register was made in the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2016. Since the passage of the Act, Cadw has reviewed the boundaries of all the parks and gardens on the current non-statutory register — nearly 400 — and consulted with their owners.
Once the register becomes statutory, all of the registered sites will appear on Cof Cymru, Cadw’s online database of designated historic assets in Wales. However, the statutory register will not impose any new legal restrictions on Wales’ historic parks and gardens or introduce a new consent regime. Registered sites will continue to receive the current level of protection through the planning system.
